La Claque is back for a fourth season at the Gaîté Montparnasse! Already over 400 performances!
Funny, musical and interactive, the incredible story of an applause conductor.
1895 in a Parisian theatre. Auguste Levasseur, head of the claque, leads a troupe of accomplices who, mixed in with the audience, are tasked with applauding at opportune moments. An applauded play is a successful play, but two hours before a major premiere, Auguste is abandoned by his claque. He then tasks Fauvette, an orchestra musician, and Dugommier, the theatre's stage manager, with finding replacements to save the evening's performance. There is only an hour and a half left before the premiere begins to rehearse the novice claqueurs by having them interpret excerpts from the show, which boasts no less than five acts, forty musicians, and thirty set changes! The task is arduous, there are only three of them, and tonight, their careers hang by a claque!
After Le Siffleur and its 700 performances, Fred Radix returns with a new show that tackles a subject and a character who have marked the history of theatre, treating them with humour, musicality, and historical anachronism.
The press says:
France 3 “Thanks to his humour, his energy, his gentle madness and his enthusiasm, he’s sure to give you a claque”
Télérama TTTT “The nonchalant Fred Radix, unforgettable Siffleur, takes an interest in the millennia-old custom of the claque. Drawing on historical research, the vocal virtuoso offers a new musical and interactive comedy show. To discover without delay”
Le Parisien "We're crazy about this Claque: hilarious interpretation, a generous and clever show! "
Le Figaro "Fred Radix pro
